<strong>Mazamas</strong> mission is to<br />
provide a comprehensive<br />
climbing program with<br />
allied activities that<br />
enhance and protect the<br />
participants and the<br />
environment.<br />
Capital Campaign News<br />
When we first moved to the area we lived in an<br />
apartment that had a beautiful view of Mt. Hood. We<br />
often said to each other that some day we should climb<br />
it. Being from the Midwest, our experience with mountains<br />
was nil. However, we did have plenty of experience<br />
with snow and cold weather. A friend of ours, who<br />
had just completed the BCEP and had climbed Mt.<br />
Hood, suggested we sign up for it the next year. That<br />
was 15 years ago. We did and have been <strong>Mazamas</strong> ever<br />
since.<br />
When we heard that a new home for the <strong>Mazamas</strong><br />
was needed, we didn’t hesitate to contribute. The<br />
<strong>Mazamas</strong> have been like a family to us over the years.<br />
They have provided us a sense of community. We have<br />
attended many classes and other functions at the present<br />
business office. It has always felt like coming<br />
home. It has been, to paraphrase from the old sitcom<br />
Cheers, a place “… where everyone knows your<br />
name.” We want that sense of community to be available<br />
to future generations of climbers. We hope our<br />
contribution will make the Mazama Mountaineering<br />
Center a reality.<br />

Wildflower Identification Hike<br />
What’s the name of that little blue flower? Why is it growing<br />
on this slope and not in the valley below? That white one<br />
looks like what I have growing in my garden. Are they related?<br />
Join us on a free wildflower identification and appreciation<br />
hike Sat., April 30. Amateur botanist Barry Maletzky<br />
will lead us on an easily-paced hike up Dog Mountain at the<br />
height of the flower season. We will hike up the steeper west<br />
side and then loop down the east trail, of course enjoying<br />
many stops to inspect the flora and learn about the names of<br />
the plants, how they received their names, their relationships<br />
to other plants in our mountains and to familiar plants in<br />
our gardens back home. Meet at 8:30 a.m. at Gateway or<br />
9:45 a.m. at the Dog Mountain Trailhead. Forest Service<br />

MAZAMAS EXECUTIVE COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING<br />
February 25, 2005<br />
Attending: Wendy Carlton, Sam Nebel, Marty Hanson, Keith<br />
Dubanevich, Terri Cummings, Eugene Lewins, Gary Beck, Lori Freeman,<br />
Harold Crawford, Peggie Schwarz.<br />
Wendy Carlton called the meeting to order at 12:05 p.m. The<br />
meeting was adjourned just after 1 p.m. The purpose of the meeting<br />
was to discuss some recent developments regarding the Capital<br />
Campaign<br />
Keith Dubanevich reported that he and co-chair Eugene Lewins<br />
were recommending that the <strong>Mazamas</strong> retain experts in fundraising.<br />
Keith outlined the success of the campaign so far and the need to develop<br />
a more coordinated and professional approach to fundraising. In<br />
the prior few weeks, Eugene, Keith and Peggie Schwarz have met with<br />
and interviewed two candidates for the position. A written proposal<br />
was obtained from Smith & Co.<br />
After extensive discussion and debate it was moved that Council<br />
approve the request to retain Smith & Co. subject to the following: 1)<br />
incorporation into the contract a requirement of at least quarterly performance<br />
evaluations by the co-chairs of the campaign, Peggie and<br />
Wendy Carlton; 2) that the terms of the contract be acceptable to the<br />
co-chairs of the campaign and the executive members of Council and<br />
include a requirement of detailed billing; and 3) that acceptable references<br />
be obtained. The motion was seconded, and there was a unanimous<br />
vote to approve the motion.<br />
Old-Timers Activities<br />
25 years or more of Mazama membership<br />
Wednesday, April 27. We’ll walk along the Columbia enjoying<br />
the awesome views up and down the river and the great variety<br />
of birds that are visible and active at this time of year. There will<br />
be lots of wildflowers to see, too. It is fun to try to identify both<br />
birds and flowers, so bring your binoculars and reference books.<br />
We’ll have lunch in a cozy restaurant in Washougal after the<br />
hike and then visit the Pendleton Mills Outlet Store in search of<br />
fabulous clothing bargains.<br />
Leader: Flora Huber (503) 658-5710. Meet for carpooling at<br />
10 a.m. at the northwest corner of the big K-Mart parking lot at<br />
N.E. 122nd and Sandy Blvd. in Portland.<br />
Thursday, May 26. Meet in the banquet room of J.J. North’s<br />
Grand Buffet at N.E. 105th and Halsey at 11:30 a.m. It’s just a<br />
few blocks east of the Gateway MAX station. Bring your<br />
friends, they are always welcome!<br />
There is going to be a special program you won’t want to<br />
miss! Betty Parker will re-live for us a wonderful <strong>Mazamas</strong> outing<br />
that went to Nepal in 1979. It was led by Bob Pierce who<br />
has been a member since 1956. Betty was part of the outing and<br />
took beautiful slide pictures as they trekked the Annapurna massif<br />
and crossed over 17,771-foot-high Thorung La. They even<br />
detoured from New Delhi to Agra in India to see the Taj Mahal.<br />
Betty is no stranger to high peaks, since joining the <strong>Mazamas</strong> in<br />
1949, she has received the 16 Major NW Peaks climbing award.<br />
For directions to the restaurant or information, call (503) 254-<br />
9465 or (503) 293-6304.<br />
We are saddened to report that Helen Wirtanen passed away<br />
March 10 in her home at Calaroga Terrace. A member since<br />
1952, she had many friends and will be greatly missed.<br />

President’s Corner<br />
Wendy Carlton<br />
‘<strong>Mazamas</strong>’ Founding Principals’<br />
In 1966, the Long Range Planning Committee (yes, they had one<br />
then too!) established the Philosophy Subcommittee and directed the<br />
committee to review the <strong>Mazamas</strong> to make sure the 72-year-old organization<br />
had remained true to its founding principles. The subcommittee<br />
concluded that the founding principles had been held to: mountain<br />
climbing and directly related activities were the main focus of the<br />
<strong>Mazamas</strong> when founded in 1894, and continued to be the driving<br />
principle in 1966.<br />
The committee also noted that the <strong>Mazamas</strong> had experienced gradual<br />
but enduring growth. I quote from the report “Growth that might<br />
be compared to that of a sequoia that has not reached ultimate maturity.<br />
The guiding light to the organization’s exisitence and its ability to<br />
attract devoted members must be more than just the climbing of<br />
mountains. Perhaps it is mountaineering fellowship that is the key? Is<br />
not fellowship then a potent part of the Mazama philosophy — fellowship<br />
activated by a common ideal?”<br />
Mountain climbing, related activities, and fellowship — rich principles<br />
indeed!<br />
More than 111 years later we are still like the sequoia — strong,<br />
deeply rooted, growing slowly, continuing to thrive and flourish —<br />
continuing to gain members through a shared set of principles, interests<br />
and goals. We climb mountains, we hike, we support conservation<br />
and research projects, we conduct unique educational programs, we<br />
train leaders, we protect our history, we laugh together, and we celebrate<br />
together. We support each other’s successes and mourn each<br />
other’s losses. Is this not true fellowship?<br />
After reading the 1966 report I dug out my copy of our current<br />
strategic plan and was delighted to find that many of the founding<br />
ideals and principles are repeated in our current strategic plan. We have<br />
held to the ideals that served the <strong>Mazamas</strong> so well for the first 70 years,<br />
we have continued to grow and thrive in the last 50 years, and as we<br />
make decisions about our programs and our goals, we will always go<br />
back to that map, to that set of principles that have proved their value<br />
and their enduring strength. If we do this, I know that in a hundred<br />
years the <strong>Mazamas</strong>’ president will write an another article, similar to<br />
this one, celebrating the rich legacy and history of the <strong>Mazamas</strong>.<br />

New Reserve Collection at the Mazama<br />
Library – Climbing Guidebooks<br />
With the arrival of the summer climb schedule, many of us are starting<br />
to research routes for our upcoming adventures. Now, the frustration<br />
of stopping by the library for the one key route description or<br />
photo you need and finding it’s been checked out is (mostly) a thing of<br />
the past. The Mazama Library now has a reserve collection of the most<br />
popular guidebooks that will always be available. The books will be on<br />
the main floor (not in the library), so just ask any staff member if you<br />
need one. Again, these books do not circulate, so please keep them here<br />
so we all can use them. (We also have circulating copies of many of<br />
these titles, so if you want to check one you usually can.)<br />
We currently have these titles available:<br />
• Cascade Alpine Guide Volume 1,2 and 3, by Fred Beckey<br />
• Oregon High, by Jeff Thomas<br />
• Climbing Washington’s Mountains, by Jeff Smoot<br />
• Selected Climbs in the North Cascades Volume 1 and 2, by<br />
Nelson and Potterfield<br />
• 75 Scrambles in Oregon, by (our own) Barbara Bond<br />
• 75 Scrambles in Washington, by Peggy Goldman<br />
• Washington’s Highest Mountains, by Peggy Goldman<br />
• A Climber’s Guide to the Olympic Mountains, by Olympic<br />

Access Committee<br />
The Access Committee needs you! Please join me in making the<br />
Access Committee active once more. We have a number of issues<br />
that need our attention. One topic of interest to many members is<br />
the continuing effort to preserve the Madrone Wall area. On<br />
March 15 the Clackamas County Board of Commisioners held a<br />
disposition meeting on the “Hardscrabble Quarry” — as they call<br />
the area. The 45-acre area also known as the Madrone Wall,<br />
which is just east of Carver, is home to a distinctive cliff face and<br />
its namesake trees. Additionally the area is a unique wildlife and<br />
plant habitat. The <strong>Mazamas</strong> Access Committee is working with<br />
local nonprofits to insure that our interests are being represented<br />
as the commissioners consider all the angles while deliberating.<br />
Watch for further updates on the Madrone Wall.<br />
The annual Adopt-a-Crag cleanup at Rocky Butte will be held<br />
in the coming months. Coordinated with The Access Fund, this is<br />
a great way to give a little back to an area of such educational and<br />
recreational importance to the <strong>Mazamas</strong>. These are just a fraction<br />
of the important issues the Access Committee is working on.<br />
For more information on Access, or to join — please contact<br />
me. I look forward to the challenges of the upcoming year as we<br />
work to be strong advocates for our outdoor pursuits. Send me<br />
e-mail at: access@mazamas.org.<br />
Thank you,<br />
Barbara I. Bond, <strong>Mazamas</strong> Access Committee chair<br />

<strong>Mazamas</strong> Aid Madrone Wall Preservation<br />
Thank you, <strong>Mazamas</strong>, for your outstanding recent support including<br />
a $2000 grant from the Executive Council that was drawn partially<br />
from the Becker Fund. This was a big shot in the arm and it<br />
will help the Madrone Wall Preservation Committee (MWPC)<br />
continue our work toward preventing the site from being<br />
destroyed as a quarry or housing development, and re-establishing<br />
recreational access including rock climbing and establishing<br />
permanent protective status as a park or open space.<br />
On March 15, a study session was held in Clackamas<br />
County between Clackamas County Commissioners and<br />
County Park managers. Several interested community representatives<br />
and conservation activists attended this session<br />
including fellow <strong>Mazamas</strong> Barbara Bond, chair of the Access<br />
Committee; Joan Zuber, member of the Conservation Committee<br />
(and vice chair of South Clackamas Community Planning Organization-CPO);<br />
Kellie Rice, regional coordinator, western Oregon, The<br />
Access Fund; and me. The session outcome directed the County Parks<br />

Department and its citizen-led Parks Advisory Board (PAB) to conduct<br />
meetings with community organizations and other interested parties<br />
over this coming spring and summer. By late October, the<br />
PAB will make a recommendation for the future use of this<br />
publicly-owned property to the commissioners. The commissioners<br />
will evaluate the recommendation and then make<br />
decisions about the future of the Madrone Wall. We saw<br />
encouraging signs and have guarded optimism that the site<br />
could receive protective park status and once again be open<br />
to future outdoor recreation.<br />
Outstanding community momentum is developing to support<br />
preservation of this amazing civic treasure, especially in<br />
light of the increasing pressures of nearby urbanization in the<br />
newly incorporated city of Damascus. In the past three<br />
months, the MWPC has presented to and extensively discussed the<br />

SIGNING UP FOR A CLIMB<br />
Sign-up for a climb is by applying directly to the climb leader. “A,” “B”<br />
and “C” grade sign-up is by mail only, using an “Application for Climb”<br />
card (see below). “B” and “C” climb applicants should list recent climbing<br />
experience in spaces provided.<br />
“D” and “E” grade sign-up is by telephone with individual climb leaders.<br />
If accepted, most “D” and “E” leaders will then require an “Application<br />
for Climb” card. If telephone contact with leaders is not possible,<br />
applicants may send letters including thorough listings of experience, formal<br />
instruction, etc. with the climb card. Climb leaders’ addresses and<br />
telephone numbers are on page 10 of the schedule.<br />
To apply, fill out the card and mail in an envelope to the climb leader.<br />
(DO NOT return it to <strong>Mazamas</strong>). Make sure the return postcard portion<br />
of the card has proper postage affixed along with YOUR address.<br />
ADVANCE SIGN-UP PERIOD<br />
In order to give each applicant the same time frame in which to apply for<br />
climbs, applications may not be mailed to leaders prior to April 15.<br />
Applications mailed prior to that date will either be refused or the applicant<br />
placed on an alternate list.<br />
MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS FOR THE SAME ROUTE<br />
During the advance sign-up period, applicants may apply for only<br />
one climb of the same grade on each peak chosen. Applicants<br />
applying for more than one climb of the same grade on the same<br />
peak either will not be accepted or become an alternate on climbs<br />
of that peak after the earliest climb applied for, whether or not<br />

accepted on the earlier climb.<br />
CLIMB APPLICATION CARDS<br />
“Application for Climb” cards are sold at <strong>Mazamas</strong> business office, by<br />
mail or by telephone using a credit card. Cost of the card constitutes the<br />
climb fee. Member Cards: $15.00; Nonmember Cards: $25.00. To order<br />
cards by mail:<br />
Mail check or money order for total amount to <strong>Mazamas</strong>, 909 NW 19th<br />
Avenue, Portland, OR 97209.<br />
CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS<br />
If unable to participate on a climb after having been accepted, notify the<br />
climb leader immediately. “No shows” and those who cancel at the last<br />
moment deprive others of the opportunity to climb. IF YOU CANCEL<br />
AFTER HAVING BEEN ACCEPTED, YOUR CLIMB FEE IS NOT<br />
REFUNDABLE. If the climb is canceled or does not leave the trailhead,<br />
climb fees are refunded.<br />
CLIMB PROSPECTUS<br />
A prospectus is mailed to each party member by the climb leader<br />
about two weeks prior to the climb. It will contain such information<br />
as names/addresses of party members, equipment required, description<br />
of the route, experience required, travel instructions, meeting<br />
place, etc.<br />
TRANSPORTATION<br />
Transportation to and from the mountain is the responsibility of individual<br />
party members. Leaders will include a list of party members as an<br />
aid to arranging car pooling.<br />
CLIMB REGULATIONS<br />
In case of accident, illness, or other incapacity, a climber must pay for<br />
his/her own medical and/or evacuation expenses, whether or not he/she<br />
has specifically authorized them. Note that all Mazama members have<br />
rescue insurance.<br />
Pets, firearms, alcoholic beverages and radios (other than ham radio<br />
transmitters or weather radios) are not permitted on climbs or in base<br />
camps. No one will be permitted on the climb who has taken or used<br />
substances (including medication) which impair performance or judgment.<br />
Climbers 17 years of age or under must furnish the climb leader with<br />
a written parental or guardian permission slip. Climbers 14 years of<br />
age or under must be accompanied on the climb by an adult responsible<br />
for them, who shall be required to remain with them for the entirety<br />
of the climb or descend with them. Neither the leader nor the assistant<br />
leader of any climb shall be the responsible adult for a climber 14<br />
years of age or younger. If the “responsible adult” descends, all<br />
climbers for whom he/she is responsible shall be required to descend<br />
as well.<br />

It is time to recruit more volunteers to participate in the<br />
Wilderness Steward Program! The <strong>Mazamas</strong> are entering the<br />
sixth season of our partnership with the US Forest Service to<br />
promote this great program. Rangers Mary Ellen Fitzgerald<br />
and Sue Brun will train us in Leave No Trace principles. We<br />
will then be well equipped to hike into the Mt. Hood, Salmon-<br />
Huckleberry and the Hatfield wildernesses to talk to campers<br />
and hikers about wilderness ethics and LNT practices. If you<br />
can’t hike or backpack there are opportunities to do community<br />
outreach with church groups, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and<br />
school groups in a classroom setting. Training and teaching<br />
tools are provided. Other activities that are planned for 2005<br />
include invasive plant pulling, revegetation projects and help<br />
with watering newly planted areas.<br />
Wilderness Steward Update<br />
www.mazamas.org<br />
This program has been well received by the outdoor community<br />
and the personal rewards are great. Teaching others, especially<br />
young people, how to tread lightly and leave no evidence<br />
of their visit in the wilderness is tremendously satisfying. If you<br />
have wanted to do more backpacking, do some community<br />
service, or just give back to this wonderful mountain in our<br />
backyard, this program is for you. For more information go to<br />
our Web site www.mazamas.org and click on Activities, then<br />

Training dates are Monday, April 25 at the new downtown<br />

BARK Hike to the NE Side of Mt. Hood<br />
Sunday, April 10, at 8:45 a.m. Carpools will leave the Daily Grind<br />
(SE Hawthorne & 40th) promptly at 9 a.m. Please arrive by 8:45 a.m.<br />
so we can check you in, arrange rides and give a brief overview of the<br />
day’s plans.<br />
Enjoy an exploration to one of Mt. Hood’s most popular and threatened<br />
recreation areas on the northeast side of Mt. Hood. The Pollalie<br />
Cooper timber sales, which encompass 865 acres, sit adjacent to the<br />
Tilly Jane roadless area, home of the historic Tilly Jane Trail leading up<br />
to Cooper Spur. On this trip, you’ll explore this diverse transition<br />
ecosystem, learn about the role fire plays in forest ecology and find out<br />
about the community restoration vision for this area—as opposed to<br />
the development vision of Mt. Hood Meadows, and the logging vision<br />
of the US Forest Service. For the hike, bring warm clothing (scarf, hat,<br />
gloves) food, water, rain gear, sturdy water-resistant hiking shoes, sunscreen,<br />
etc., and be prepared to go off trail.<br />

Conservation Committee Outing<br />
Held on March 12, 2005<br />
The Conservation Committee outing to Circle Creek was very successful<br />
and informative. Seven volunteers: Debbie Meisinger, Barry Buchanan,<br />
John Hawthorne, Stefan Hauser, Virginia Keefer, Vik Anantha and Neal<br />
Keefer were treated to a most educational and recreational day. We met<br />
Doug Ray, an enthusiastic and knowledgeable wetlands biologist. Doug<br />
gave us a multi-hour lesson on riparian ecosystems and a taste of the<br />
complexity of the interdependencies of healthy natural forests, the<br />
streams they support and the salmon who populate healthy streams.<br />
Doug is a fun guy with incredible passion for his work. His enthusiasm is<br />
very contagious, and his running dialog was truly educational.<br />
The North Coast Land Conservancy recently bought nearly 400<br />
acres along Circle Creek, which runs along the East side of Tillamook<br />
Head and is a major tributary of the Necanicum River. About 100<br />
years ago the property was cleared of its big spruce trees and turned<br />
into grazing lands. The work we did was to plant native bushes and<br />
trees in a former grazing meadow adjacent to the creek. This work supports<br />
NCLC’s plan to reestablish the original forest and rebuild the<br />
riparian zones along the creek, in an effort to help restore native Coho<br />
Salmon populations. It was very humbling and gratifying to be part of<br />
this restoration.<br />
Our crew was so effective we finished the planting work well ahead<br />
of schedule, so we had time to clean up an old scrap metal and glass<br />
dump site from an otherwise beautiful spruce forest glen, carpeted with<br />
moss, oxalis and skunk cabbage in full bloom.<br />
Our reward for the morning’s work (as if the work was not reward<br />
enough) was a guided tour of the amazing wetlands spruce forest<br />
downstream of our planting site, followed by a very adventurous and<br />
vigorous scramble on Tillamook head. It was a perfect day weather<br />
wise and left us all with a feeling of great satisfaction and accomplishment.<br />
Many thanks to the volunteers!<br />
